Hi Frank...Thanx for the reviews you know what your talking about... being a long time Mackie speaker user, now I enjoy the Mackie thump line myself ...sound & weight is excellent for the money....what does FBT make compatible in sound and weight in a 15" powered speaker? also as for bang for the buck my PODIUM powered 10" speakers are really doing a nice job.

FBT doesn't really have a plastic box speaker in the Thump price range, they do have a brand call Kempton which is FBT's China made version of a speakers, which are priced thump area but with a very well balanced sound.

Hello again:

When I gather all the info and $$, I will be talking to you Frankie, greetings to the family, and thanks everybody for the added info.

I know Manuel, your the best,

Also look at the Allen & Heath Zed mixer, they are a step above the mackie stuff in sound and reliability in my opinion
